Apptronik

Pollen Robotics (Hugging Face)
—
Apollo
91
Reachy 2
Fully open-source HW+SW. ROS2. Hugging Face backing. Best-in-class openness.
Apollo: Target <$50,000 at scale. Reachy 2: ~$70,000–$100,000.
Apollo rates a higher payload at 25 kg vs 3 kg. Payload ratings are vendor claims and do not always include a duty cycle — peak vs sustained payload can differ significantly.
Apollo is in active development without commercial availability. Reachy 2 is shipping to customers. Status reflects the vendor's published commercial position as of the last review and can change between announcement and actual delivery.
Apollo has no ROS support; Reachy 2 has ros2. For research and multi-vendor robotics stacks, native ROS 2 is the strongest signal of ecosystem maturity.
Reachy 2 ships with LiDAR for depth sensing; Apollo does not. LiDAR adds cost and complexity but improves obstacle detection in low-light or low-contrast environments.
